Most of what was said by others here is true.
I never truned down a load, always on time, professional, take great care of trucks.
As long as run illegal every thing is great. But turn down a load because of be very tired, the load will be there on time and you are told to take the truck in and mt it out.
Company will short you at least 10% on miles paid on EVERY load. Even if you follow their routing exactly on a typical 600 mile trip you will run at least 660 miles to get it there. Therefore you are running 60 miles for free. Next, Knight is going after short haul stuff that pays big bucks. They tell dispatch they have extra money to offer the driver but don't offer it unless the driver asks.
Next, Get used to being forced to run illegal by your dispatcher and then get in trouble or probably fired by safety because they can't communicate.
Next, No matter how much notice you give them that you need to be off on a certain day you can't guarantee it. So you can't make plans if they won't get you home with family.
I tried to work it out will everyone including division manager, but all i got was lies and smoke and mirrors. Had dates times and load numbers but they would not pull them up and every thing was my fault.
In closing... Knight Transportation brags about how they are a debt free company. But if you have to steal from your driver to get that status I wouldn't go bragging about it. So do yourself a favor and take my advise... Steer clear from Knight. And this is from a driver with quite a few years of service in with them. I am not your typical driver that was here 3 months and then quit.
Can anyone help!
